A major source of information about the existence and location of cemeteries is the USGS GNIS. This page looks at the content of this system for New Castle county, Delaware in comparison to the content of WeRelate. Not every entry in the USGS GNIS can be associated with a real-world entity, and analysis is needed to determine whether the entries should be deprecated. Also, alternate names for the cemeteries have not been exported from USGS GNIS.
